On September 1, 2026, The Capitol Forum hosted a conference call with Jim Woolery, Founding Partner of Woolery & Co., to discuss emerging litigation and risks in the private credit market.
The discussion examined recent lawsuits involving business development companies (BDCs) managed by Ares, Blue Owl and KKR, including allegations that investment advisers breached their fiduciary duties by charging excessive fees tied to inflated asset valuations. Jim also discussed broader concerns about practices in the private credit market and the level of risk within the asset class.
